%N The generalized Fibonacci word f^[5].

%C Shifted by 1, this is the binary sequence [(n+1)*alpha]-[n*alpha], n >= 1, where alpha = 1/(4+phi) has continued fraction [0,5,1,1,1,1,...]. Brown (1991, Theorem 3) shows that this is not fixed by any morphism 0 -> A, 1 -> B where A and B are finite binary strings. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Sep 11 2016

%C In fact, none of the generalized Fibonacci words f^[i], and none of its shifts, are fixed by a morphism as soon as i>2. This follows from Allauzen's criterion for the f^[i]: they are Sturmian sequences with slope

%C alpha[i] = (i-phi)/(i^2-i-1) (see Ramirez et al., page 8),

%C so the algebraic conjugate of alpha[i] is (2i-1+sqrt(5))/(2i^2-2i-2) which lies in (0,1) for i>2. For the shifts of the f^[i] this follows from Yasutomi's work. - _Michel Dekking_, Apr 21 2018

%F Set S_0=0, S_1=00001; thereafter S_n = S_{n-1}S_{n-2}; sequence is S_{oo}.

%F From _Peter Bala_, Nov 19 2013: (Start)

%F a(n) = floor((n + 2)/(phi + 4)) - floor((n + 1)/(phi + 4)) where phi = 1/2*(1 + sqrt(5)) denotes the golden ratio.

%F If we read the present sequence as the digits of a decimal constant c = 0.00001 00000 10000 10000 01000 .... then we have the series representation c = sum {n >= 1} 1/10^floor(n*(phi + 4)). An alternative representation is c = 9*sum {n >= 1} floor(n/(phi + 4)) /10^n.

%F The constant 9*c has the simple continued fraction representation [0; 11111, 10, 10^5, 10^6, 10^11, ..., 10^A022095(n), ...] (see Adams and Davison).

%F Using this result we can find the alternating series representation c = 9*sum {n >= 1} (-1)^(n+1)*(1 + 10^A022095(3*n-1))/( (10^A022095(3*n-3) - 1)*(10^A022095(3*n) - 1) ).

%F The series converges very rapidly: for example, the first 10 terms of the series give a value for c accurate to more than 12 million decimal places. Cf. A005614, A221150 and A221151. (End)
